  1. Lighthouse brokerage About Get started Follow Sign in Reasons why shippers should use intermodal transportation in their supply chains Lighthouse brokerage 2 days ago · 2 min read Intermodal transport involves the combination of different means of transport using a single container. In this case, we use adaptable containers which can be transported by different means of transport. Transportation is done in several ways: land transport and maritime or river transport. In summary, intermodal transport is characterized by the use of at least two different means to transport the goods, with a change of container. Why hire Lighthouse Brokerage service for intermodal shipping: · Cost of fuel savings Transporting materials via intermodal shipping can save a shipper a big amount of money. One of the biggest savings is the fuel which is remarkably less with the railway system as opposed to over-the-road shipping. · Flexible Intermodal transportation provides the flexibility to find the ideal method of shipment, at the ideal time and at the ideal cost. You get more varieties in shipping which also saves you lots of money. · Promotes environmental sustainability Less fuel means fewer carbon emissions. In fact, a truck driving long- distance produces approximately twice as much carbon emissions as intermodal rail. Trains only emit around 5.4 pounds of CO2 per 100 ton- miles; on the other hand, trucks release carbon dioxide of approximately 19.8 pounds.
